Speed: Is the distance travelled in unit Time (m/s).
Frequency: Is the number of complete waves that pass in a point on a determinate period of time. (One second). The measure is Hertz (Hz).
Wavelength: Is the distnace between matching points on the wave. It’s measure in meters (m).
Longitudinal: Vibration parallel to direction of travel.
Transverse: Vibration al right angle to direction of travel.
The sound is produced by waves generated by vibration of an object. These vibrations are directly related to the size of the object, for example, a small object usually produce short waves that generate less whip sound instead usually large object generate long waves that produce heavy sounds.
In the urban planning or architecture is very important to take into account when designing the requirements of the place, location and use, as this will depend on the conditions to be developed so that the site is functional. A very significant issue is the acoustics.
The acoustics is essential for comfort in a space, must be developed allowing a good spread of sound and a noise control. Noise is a factor that leads to health problems, stress, and communication, and severely affects humanity.
Also there should be a control on the reverb sound to control echo and other aspects.
The acoustic control can then be achieved through various ways such as the dimensions of space, structures, materials, furniture, among other things.

Office: ·Open-plan areas. ·Rooms where a high noise level is created by way of the activities. ·Rooms for speech communication.
Education: ·Rooms for teaching and practicing music. ·Open-plan areas. ·Rooms where a high noise level is created by way of the activities. ·Teaching room for pupils working in groups. ·Room for speech communication.
Health Care:
